Not at all, but it is just as silly to say Trump dragged the US economy from the devastation of World Wars by his bone spurs and won.

He had a great start up with economy that was on upward trend and not so great finish.

Capitalistic system is cyclical so the next downturn was coming anyway. Without Covid it probably would have just taken bit longer.

I do not think Trump has any more part on this crash of economy than he had on the rise of it.

Telling tale is his fixation on stock markets. Stock markets are not the economy and a very small percentage of Americans actually engage at it.

Think the figure is something like 10% owning 90% of the market.

I like President Trump. I think he is the greatest President since President John Kennedy. He will win 2020. The time has come to put aside pety differences and do what is best for America and the foundation for which this country was founded. We need as a nation to get back to our founding principles.

Last time I checked, presidential historians had Trump at the bottom.

That's exactly what I think.

Figure of speech. Didn’t think anyone would be silly enough to take it literally.

Silly to think I took it literally.

My comment was on what you intended with the statement, and not that I took it literally. There was an intention there, right?

Right and here is lots of nice graphs and summaries to prove it.

Trump boasts the US economy is the best it's ever been under his watch. Here are 9 charts showing how it compares to the Obama and Bush presidencies. | Markets Insider

Trump inherited a fine, growing economy despite his lies about it being a disaster under Obama.

No President Trump, Obama’s Economic Recovery Was Not A Con Job

What is with the denial about it ?

I'm not buying it. I have one family member who is the daughter of Russian immigrants and a work colleague from Moscow. Both greatly value America's values and have no desire to go back to the "old ways" as described by you.

Have I no mouth to speak? I said how my family was, nothing else. You don't have to believe me as I am not Jesus. I'm quite fed up with this thread as well and it has made me regret saying anything at all about where I am from. This one of those situations where I must have stepped in a stump hole and now I can't get out. How pitiful for me I guess.

How horrible it is for me for talking about how I love Russia(?) Я не понимаю.

I think this thread has done a great job of bringing Trump people back to Trump.
Thanks!

She has a right to her opinion. You seem to be dogging her.
